Question 1 of 5

A nurse in an acute care facility is planning care for a client who has a history of alcohol use disorder and is admitted while intoxicated. Which of the following interventions should the nurse plan for the client?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Implement seizure precautions. This is important because individuals with alcohol use disorder are at risk for alcohol withdrawal seizures, which can occur when alcohol intake is abruptly stopped. Implementing seizure precautions involves closely monitoring the client for signs of seizure activity, ensuring a safe environment to prevent injury during a seizure, and having appropriate medications and equipment readily available if a seizure occurs. Administering methadone hydrochloride (
A) is not indicated for alcohol use disorder. Acidifying the client's urine (
B) and monitoring for orthostatic hypotension (
C) are not directly related to managing alcohol withdrawal seizures.
